Spotify integration to display current listening activity on profile

(#1161) Feature Planned profiles

Problem

Right now, users can't share or display what they are currently listening to, which reduces profile personalization and social interaction within the app.

Proposed solution

Add an integration with Spotify so that users can connect their accounts and display their current listening activity on their profile. This would show the song name, artist, and album cover in real time, allowing others to see what they are listening to.

Notes (optional)

Notes: The integration could use Spotify’s public API for real-time playback data. Potential files/areas: User profile system, account connections/settings, and UI components for profile display. Optional feature: Add privacy settings so users can choose whether to display their listening activity or keep it hidden.

Make background music play in a server you are in using a Spotify playlist via the server settings. It would be a cool idea to include with the Spotify integration

I think adding support for more streaming platforms could be a good expansion to this idea. For Discord, i had to spend about an hour to install a client mod for Tidal to display my listening status.
